Doesn’t have to be a life motto. Any motto, for any application.
Mine is: “Fear is shorter than regret.”
When people talk about loving someone they usually do so with the intent of conveying a feeling of attraction. Real love is actually an action:
- Cooking dinner after a long day.
- Staying up all night with a sick child to comfort.
- Going to a concert with your significant other of an artist or genre you really don’t like.
- Giving your life for someone to protect them.
